Chapter 388 The jungle after the cold wave

A little elk froze to death.

There was still grass hanging beside his mouth, the body was half hidden in the snow, and his limbs were stiff.

If it hadn't been for the early arrival of winter this year and given it another month of growth, it would have probably been able to survive this cold wave.

But nature didn't give it this opportunity, it seemed that it was only two months old.

Now it is frozen to death, it is so cruel.

The corpse has been eaten by carnivores, and only the abdomen and other places are as hard as stones. When the lips touch it, they will freeze. A layer of flesh will be torn off to escape.

In Montana's cold winter season, outdoor peeing requires a stick and knocking while peeing, otherwise the tin will be frozen.

This is not a joke. At least until now, no one of Han Xuan and others dares to say that they can even hold it to death if they are suffocated, such as Han’s father.

Looking into the wooden house with iron bars on the window, Jason gasped and said, "No one is here."

There is one wooden house for people to rest every kilometer, and two have been found. The animals have been densely packed with footprints, but there are no traces of people walking through it.

"Hood and Fernald are tourists who come to visit Helena, the state capital, and come to hunt. When they register, they said they had hunted with their father before, otherwise we wouldn't allow the two people to come in alone. Now it seems like they are a scam and harming themselves."

The search and rescue worker Conan took off his hat and sweated heavily. The heat from the air condensed into white water droplets. When it cooled a little, he put the hat on and covered his ears. "Let's go forward, are you from the Delta troops?"

He saw George engrave a special mark on the tree with a knife dozens of meters away, and continued, "No need to be so troublesome. I know all of them here. I can take you out even with my eyes closed. I used to be from the 25th Infantry Division, with a rank of corps."

"When I retired, I was a sergeant, George was my assistant, and a corporal rank." Jason found that the white-tailed deer group began to move, reached out to signal to speak later, and opened the door of the wooden house to let them in.

Han Xuan carefully looked at the movement outside. Not long after, an adult jaguar rushed out in the snow and headed straight for the white-tailed deer.

It quickly bit the neck of the doe that landed on the back. In fact, the white-tailed deer did not run slowly. Its directional change is also more flexible than that of the jaguar.

But it was the first time it was born this spring when it saw snow and was not used to walking in the snow.

The jaguar was covered in snow and was too close to it.

The jaguar is more than two meters five meters long and has smooth lines. He lies on the white-tailed deer and bites its neck tightly, and blood stains the snow.

This big cat, which originally lived in Central and South America, now has to adapt to the cold climate of Montana because of its living environment being squeezed by humans.

These jaguars in Flathead Forest Park were stocked, with too few carnivores around, resulting in the flood of deer species in the 1960s. The Administration introduced four jaguars to balance nature.

One was killed by British Columbian wolf in the first year. The remaining ones reproduced seven jaguars in the fall of the next year, and three survived and grew through continuous breeding. They have grown to nearly a hundred today, which Han Xuan learned from the calendar distributed by the Park Police Department.

The jaguar looked at the wooden house, opened his mouth and let go of the white-tailed deer. While the prey was still hot, he bite the food to replenish his physical energy and eat it very quickly. If his experience tells it to be slow, the prey will freeze.

After more than ten minutes, it bit the abdomen of the white-tailed deer, tore a large piece of meat, and ran away with it in his mouth.

The jaguars had just left. A group of hungry wild dogs came to smell the smell of blood, and continued to bite and wait until the prey freezes. They were reluctant to circle the wooden house and left.

A real-life animal world is staged outside the house.

The snowy owl also came to join in the fun, as big as the one I saw before, and could be 60 centimeters long.

But it came late, so it pecked on the prey with its mouth for a long time without knocking on the ice.

After waiting for a few unknown birds to return to the nest and hatch the frozen eggs, Conan breathed a sigh of relief.

"They have left, otherwise the birds will not dare to come back. Now at four o'clock, we will look for a wooden house. If we don't find it, we will continue tomorrow. There will be a search and rescue team in the town. Please trouble you."

There is a thick-dressed worker, not a local, who came from the city.

I had never seen such a bloody picture, and found obvious bear claw marks on the door, and was shocked: "Can those two people survive here overnight?"

Han’s father looked at him and shook his head and said, “I don’t know, look for it first. Staying in the wooden house should be able to do it. They brought a quilt that lasted the night and a gun.”

Everyone could tell that he was unconfident. These wooden houses were also very cold, only one or two degrees higher than outdoors, but there was no wind and it was a little more comfortable.

After solving physiological problems in a wooden house, wearing too much pants is sometimes a troublesome and difficult to take off.

Continue to set off, shouting the names of the two people from time to time.

People didn't see it, and the snow on the trees shook a lot.

Continue to move forward, during which time I saw many contests between predators and predators.

A cold wave completely stimulated their wildness.

In order to survive, the moose had to fight continuously. The moose used its horns to spread half a meter of snow, and just to eat a few bites of hay. There was no way to eat the bark.

Not all carnivores are winners.

A gray wolf was cut through his stomach by antler. A small wound is nothing in spring, but it is fatal now.

A brown bear that was invincible across Flathead was also dead.

The body was covered with ice and snow, turning into a sculpture.

It had not had time to dig a hole for hibernation, but it might have come out to hunt prey at night before snow was still there, and it encountered a drastic cooling in the middle of the journey. It curled up behind the rock to hide from the wind and snow. It had not yet grown a fat layer and could not resist this change.

The loss of this cold wave is much greater than Conan imagined.

He said sadly: "I know this bear, Little Riley.

It was injured by animal traps in the summer and went to hunt for help from hunters. It was planned to send it to the zoo to recuperate, but I didn't agree. The wilderness is where they survive, rather than bribing us to get animal performances in the zoo.

In just one day, it is estimated that one-third of the animals died in Flathead. This number will expand in a few days, and it will take five years to recover."

"You are right, Mr. Conan, I can only blame the change in temperature this year. I think it would rather die in the wild than be kept in captivity."

Han Xuan comforted and added in his heart that his lazy guy doesn't count, he still wants to be kept by others.

"I understand that this kind of thing has happened many times. When I use snow to cover Little Riley, let's go.

I really shouldn't name them, it seems like some kind of contract, and then I became friends. Before I came, I was most afraid of such a thing, but I didn't expect it to happen."

When you are thirsty, dust off the snow above the snow layer.

I grabbed a little clean snowflake and put it in my mouth. After about twenty minutes, the snow in the sky stopped temporarily.

The dark clouds are still in the air and may continue to fall at any time, and the temperature is still lowering.

Han Xuan suddenly found something red next to an old pine tree on the observation deck several meters above the ground.

As one of the most conspicuous colors, the red tent has always been a favorite among hunters in the wild, and excitedly said: "I found it! There!"

Walking in the snow quickly.

Conan shouted Hood and Fernald's names, and the other party could definitely hear it, but no one came out to respond.

The father grabbed his son with a heavy expression, "Don't go, just be here!"

Han Xuan thought of something, nodded and said nothing.
